Chapter 717: Hunters or Preys? (5)
As the headless body of the soul puppet controlled by Vermont fell on the ground, it shattered into pieces, awakening the others from their stupor. Everything happened so fast that they couldn't comprehend clearly how Vermont, who was the strongest aura user among them, died in a split second.
Just a moment ago, it seemed as if he was about to send the mysterious giant flying, but the next moment, his head suddenly blew up. They knew the soul puppet in their arsenal could mimic 33% of their original strength despite only having a unique rank, but despite the suppression, no one in the entire conflict plains could counter them, not to mention destroy their soul puppets with a mere slap!
At this moment, the thought of this giant being weak or having any misgivings about him just because he was out of the norm vanished in smoke, and they were fully on guard.
'T-this... he's an aura user with a ridiculously powerful physique! And he seemed even stronger than that brainless fool. Just what kind of race he belonged to?' Diminutive thought as his expression was solemn.
If he was planning on subduing this person by letting him taste despair first, his entire plan changed after witnessing Vermont's soul puppet end. He even started to doubt if he could go against this guy with his main body!
Jacob leisurely walked towards the foot of the mountain as if he had just flicked a flea in his way. This time, no one made any move, not even the Queen Ice Fiend Locust.
However, the Queen Ice Fiend Locust wasn't afraid, just a little shocked and thought, 'I guess the treasures they are using are pitifully weak. They're turning out to be useless despite their early arrogance, and it seemed I had to deal with this matter just as I had initially planned. I'll just wait for my army to arrive, and then I'll show them what true power is.'
At this moment, Sylas could no longer take the suspense and question with a hint of apprehension, "Who are you?"
Earlier, when Vermont attacked him, it might've appeared extremely fast, but in Jacob's eyes, he was as slow as a snail. That slap wasn't meant to kill him, but because he didn't know just how powerful his physical body had become, he ended up destroying the soul puppet despite not even using half of his strength.
Now that the Ice Fiend Locust was using this spell, he didn't dodge and let it hit him as he wanted to see how this advanced, unique rank spell would affect him.
However, when the ice spike connected his body, despite their sharpness and powerful force behind them, they shattered like glass upon collision, and all Jacob felt was...nothing!
'Although the damn book had hidden the essential part of the final stage until now, I had to admit; the benefits are insane. So, I guess I just have to gather more blood now and complete this as soon as possible. But instead of doing it the hard and time-consuming way, I'll just have to change my method...'
Once Jacob was content with this experiment and saw the hint of fear in the quasi-legends' gazes, he decided to proceed to the next step.
Jacob moved and appeared right in front of Ice Fiend Locust as if he had teleported, but that was his full speed. The Ice Fiend Locust was shocked when Jacob suddenly appeared right in front of it, completely ignoring the spell.
But before it could react, Jacob's hand moved as he threw another slap, and the Ice-Fined Locust blasted into mincemeat, splashing purple blood everywhere. Once it died, the spell lost its effect by the time its headless body dropped to the ground.
The Quasi Legends, who witnessed this similar scene again, quickly jumped back instinctively. They knew their soul puppets weren't this person's match!
However, at this moment, Jacob, who had spoken to them all this time, suddenly said nonchalantly, "That's how you squash a bug. You guys are Quasi Legends, right? Do you want to make a deal with me instead of this bug bitch?"
